Excerpt
Many of the major publications have recently taken note of the twentieth anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, which ruled that segregation in public schools was unconstitutional. The New York Times (May 12, 1974) commented, "Despite enormous strides by blacks and other aggrieved minorities, the battle for equality is far from over . . . " On page 3 of The Vanguard there is a story about an incident in a South Dakota courtroom, illustrating the indignities and injustice with which Indian people must contend.
